At a baseball game some years ago a bunch of irate bigots confronted a group flying this flag and told them to go back to their country...

That is the flag of the great State of Texas, the one below is the Chilean flag.
What ignorant assholes.

The participants in the CPAC rally were claiming CNN distributed the flags and calling for CNN to be destroyed. They were too embarrassed to admit that they were duped by some silly trixters so they automatically go after the media.

Quote:The flags were handed out by an anti-Trump activist named Ryan Clayton.

Unfortunately in the minds of Trump supporters shit like this legitimizes the current regime's complaints about paid protesters.

One would think that the order of the colors would have tipped them off. You can't make red, white, and blue out of it. Of course, their hero is really stupid enough to make that mistake.
But if any of them ever meet a coral snake, they're in trouble.

I'd studied the state flags once and remembered one of the flags had the Union Jack on it, but I donno, state flags aren't the most interesting thing in the world so I very quickly forgot which flag belonged to which state.

Doesn't this meet the very definition of a Poe? I mean, would it really surprise anybody if the flags had been legit? Did it surprise anybody that, prank or no, the people at the rally were utterly oblivious about it? That without the wink-and-nod of those who admitted to the prank, that it would be indistinguishable from the very thing it was parodying?
